Many EU countries have a “VAT” and like feel like this is kinda targeting poor people. Like, for the rich, this is insignificant, for poorer people, a (example) 20% tax would be a huge burden. Why do they do this?

It is the only incident of Laffer being proven correct as far as I know. It is the 2nd to last time spending was cut along side taxes.
Cool to know about, thanks!
Sadly we should cit spending along side tax cuts. Had we done that things would be better
Honestly, I’m just not sure deficit spending outside of wars/economic emergencies was a great strategy and instead, a time bomb Reaganomics left everyone else to deal with. I think that’s the ridiculously outsized part of spending that would’ve been the best to cut. If I remember correctly, servicing the debt is now on par with American military spending…
Yeah but honest well thought out economic conservative budgets are rare and unpopular.
